About Work & Life Newsletter

Real Solutions for the Business of Life

Do you want to be able to reduce major costs caused by unnecessary physician visits, absenteeism, injuries, or caregiving? Are you looking for a way to reduce health care and mental health claims? Would you like a tool that does all that and reinforces and supports your organization's communications too? Then you want Work & Life, an 8-page, 4-color, bimonthly newsletter. Work & Life provides readers with regular, timely, and credible information to help them enhance their health and productivity, at work and at home.

This award winning publication does not force publisher-directed information on the reader. Instead, we let our readers tell us what they need in health-related information. We not only encourage feedback throughout the year, but also conduct periodic reader surveys. Then we incorporate this feedback into articles that are a quick read with "bottom line" action ideas that are easy to achieve.

Whether you use Work & Life as an independent "stand alone" publication or integrate it into your corporate health program, it is an effective health and work education tool. Our experience has shown that repeated health care messages really work. They can change behaviors and outcomes more than a single-message publication or a once-read book.
